Pawn Stars on History Channel (4 Viewers)

Rick #####es and moans if Corey and Chum are slacking off at work for ten seconds. He totally took both of them fishing on a work day!

 
First episode was new low for Pawn Stars. Three items shown: a $20 toy, 1920s baseball glove for $425 and a worthless "mystery rock" that a woman found on her property in Utah and thought looked cool. Then 10 minutes of watching Rick take his son and Chum fishing.

Agreed. Worst ever.

 
"Hi, I have some art I'd like to sell. But don't give me any money just yet. First, please tell me EVERY known, boring fact about it."

 
:rolleyes: at Corey rambling on about those quintuplets. If Rick had done that, Corey would have called him a boring nerd.

 
So, Rick relentlessly rides Corey, chastises and yells at him all the time, yet here he is buying his step-daughter's 30K cars, and building air-conditioned doghouses.

On the other hand, if it wasn't for Rick, Corey would be a "sandwich artist", so maybe it evens out.

 
Whomever decided to make this show interactive should be executed. As if it's not painful enough trying to sit through every episode these days, now we get half the screen filled up with bid guesses of the brain-deads playing along at home.

 
Corey tells Honus Wagner's life story to the broad attempting to sell his autograph.

He definitely knew all of that off the top of his head.

Yeah, I love how he gives Rick a hard time about rambling on about the history of an item and then does the exact same thing the next episode.

And what is with that haircut? No way he pays somebody to do that. He has to be cutting it himself, right?

 
Poor copy of Win Ben Stein's Money. Only amusing part was guy not taking the free $1k at the end. Had to know he was beat.

 
I loved how the 2nd episode this week was scheduled until 10:06 on the DVR, which is about four minutes into that unwatchable new game show.

So tricky!!!

:rolleyes:

 
Corey is such a spoiled punk. Calling gentlemen 30 years his senior "Chief", "Boss", "My man", etc.

Eat a fat #### and die.

Rick hates this Game Show host dude so much.

It's one case where I 100% agree with him.

Not good body language at all. I would assume that Rick has creative control, but maybe not with regards to the host. Titus isn't helping his cause by being so unfunny, and dressing painfully like someone half his age.

 
The forced humor of the show is tough enough, when you put that into the less directly-scripted environment of a game show that is taped probably in one-shot it's just so much worse.

I can only imagine what painfully lame lines they are editing out when the guys are in the iso booth (you'll notice some episodes you hear host dude make a quip while other times you don't - I assume that's editing.

The thing is, the game show premise itself, i.e. the mechanics of the show - really aren't horrible. The haggling element at the end is suspenseful since both sides don't know how many they got right. But that host. I can't imagine Rick hired that host.
